Chapter 973 A New World
After stabilizing Fei Zilin's injuries with all haste, Chen Yang immediately distributed a large number of recovery pills.
Today, Chen Yang was determined to fight the Zhou family to the bitter end!
Chen Yang ordered everyone to consolidate their defenses while he charged towards the Zhou family patriarch alone.
When the Zhou family produced their elixirs, Chen Yang recalled some information he had investigated earlier.
The Chen family had once researched gene elixirs, and Chen Yang remembered that the Heavenly Doctor Hall's investigation indicated the elixir was for treating cancer.
However, as the investigation deepened, Chen Yang began to feel that something was amiss.
When did the Zhou family start researching martial artist elixirs? According to Zhou Zeyao's intelligence, it was around the same time the Chen family was annihilated!
Gene elixirs were a very special existence, and as the Medical Saint Celestial Venerable, Chen Yang had some understanding in this area.
Treating cancer was merely one capability of gene elixirs.
The immense power that gene elixirs could unleash was far more than just treatment.
Chen Yang harbored a terrifying thought in his mind.
And only the Zhou family patriarch before him could answer all of this.
Chen Yang's meridians were nearing their breaking point with the continuous bursts of internal energy, even showing signs of tearing.
Yet, Chen Yang resolutely activated the Star Constellation cultivation technique, trapping the Zhou family patriarch within it.
Other Zhou family martial artists saw this and wanted to help, but were immediately stopped by the ancient tree.
Although the ancient tree's offensive capabilities were not as strong as other martial artists, its defensive prowess was top-tier.
It could protect Chen Yang from attacks for a short period.
The Zhou family patriarch looked at Chen Yang before him, his heart filled with tension, but he forced down his fear and said, "You want to kill me? If that's the case, then do it!"
"As long as there is one person left alive, they will eventually seek revenge on you!"
"The Zhou family's partners will also never let you go!"
"You are powerful, and you have many strong martial artists by your side, but what about Liu Ran? She's just an ordinary person. Yangyangyang Company is just a mortal company. You will live the rest of your life in fear. Don't think you've won!"
Chen Yang remained expressionless in the face of the Zhou family patriarch's words.
Threats?
These were the most common things Chen Yang had heard.
But no one had ever managed to carry them out.
Chen Yang's fiery internal energy instantly controlled the Zhou family patriarch. Chen Yang intended to refine him bit by bit.
He wanted to know everything about the Chen family's tragic incident back then!
The Zhou family patriarch felt the changes within him, his face instantly turning grim. "What do you want to do? What are you doing to me! What is this thing!"
The Zhou family patriarch had initially thought Chen Yang would kill him quickly and cleanly, but now it seemed his opponent had no intention of doing so.
That peculiar sensation was slowly consuming his flesh, and his spiritual energy was also becoming uncontrollable.
In an instant, the Zhou family patriarch became somewhat fearful.
For the unknown is the most terrifying thing.
"Some time ago, I encountered an ancient martial artist. His cultivation technique was very special. It could not only refine a martial artist's body but also their spiritual energy, ensuring they would never die for eternity!"
"I have used this method once before, and I am very proficient. You don't need to be afraid."
Chen Yang's voice was extremely cold.
A moment later, he had already separated the Zhou family patriarch's body and spiritual energy.
Refining both the body and spiritual energy on the battlefield was somewhat difficult for Chen Yang.
After all, the previous exertion was not small, and there were still so many enemies outside.
Chen Yang decided to control the spiritual energy first, and the refining of the body could be done step by step.
"My body! You... Who exactly are you? This is an evil technique!"
Before the Zhou family patriarch could finish speaking, Chen Yang forcibly silenced him.
"Next, I will ask you a few questions. If you answer truthfully, I can leave some descendants for the Zhou family."
"When you came to Qingzhou City, I also sent people to the Zhou family's main base."
"Besides the peak Grandmasters who came to Qingzhou City, all other members of the Zhou family are now in my hands."
Chen Yang was not joking.
This had all been arranged long ago.
The Southwest Zhu family was being personally handled by Zhu Que.
Although only the medicinal puppet Xiao Gao, a peak Grandmaster, could be deployed, Chen Yang had also sent He Fengyun along.
Coupled with the members of the Heavenly Killing Pavilion from the Heavenly Doctor Hall, it was a simple matter to control a Zhou family that lacked peak Grandmasters.
The Zhou family patriarch was first shocked upon hearing this, but then he burst into laughter. "I never expected this. You wouldn't really have any direct descendants of the Zhou family left in the Zhou family, would you?"
"I already arranged for them to leave. The Zhou family has branches all over the world..."
Chen Yang immediately interrupted, "You dispatched a total of twelve teams, four of which were direct descendants of the Zhou family, and the remaining eight were collateral branches."
"Among the direct descendants you valued most, you also assigned a peak Grandmaster to accompany them."
"You don't honestly think I did all this without investigating, do you?"
"Zhou Lihao has not been idle at the Zhou family either."
Chen Yang then searched the Zhou family patriarch and found an elixir. "This is a gene elixir? How did your Zhou family obtain this thing?"
Upon hearing the words "gene elixir," the Zhou family patriarch's eyes tightened.
He realized he might have underestimated Chen Yang.
Not only did he underestimate the power Chen Yang wielded, but he also underestimated what the Zhou family had exposed.
As one of the Zhou family's most important projects over the past decade, few people knew about the gene elixir.
After achieving research results, it was secretly sealed away. It was only recently that they began to gradually allow the direct descendants of the Zhou family to take over these matters.
Yet, Chen Yang had somehow learned about the gene elixir without them realizing it.
"The Zhou family's most important business is medicine, so the gene elixir is naturally something our Zhou family developed."
"Chen Yang, this world is far more complex than you imagine. You must have also felt that outside this manor, there are many people watching both of us."
"Do you know why? It's because neither you nor I are sect martial artists. No matter how powerful our Zhou family is, in their eyes, we are merely a family."
"A secular family with a thousand years of inheritance is like an ant in their eyes."
"Only a few people have come to the Xuan Tian Cave Mansion today, but the number of martial artists in the entire Xuan Tian Cave Mansion is beyond your imagination."
"If you release me now, I can give you the formula for the gene elixir for free. Let's join forces and overthrow all the sects! That is a brand new world!"
